What I don't understand is that according to an article I read today, Facebook gathers all of this information on me through Facebook, WhatsApp, god knows what else! And they pass it on to the advertising companies. Now, Considering they have all that information, how on earth can the idiots...

I suspect any medical related profession is desirable anywhere in the world, mainly due to the time and effort that goes into developing the skills required. The problem with IT is there's always the moving goalpost syndrome, you learn one programming language and programming technique, and it...

Hello there Izzaldin, and welcome to the forum. That's an interesting observation there Richard, "A Noble profession!" Reminded me of something, I can't remember which country it was, I've got a sneaky suspicion it was Spain, however the gist of it is - The trade of "plumber" is well respected...

I thought I should mention that I have been keeping away from this forum deliberately, because I've just got so much to do. I get wound up and drawn it into so many things I shouldn't, and I Neglect the important things! Not saying that it's not important to get involved in something like this...

I have numerous books many, most I have never read! As in technical books as in MS Access books, ASP books! I don't know how true it is, it seems true, however I do understand that these books even if they are older, are valuable to people in third world countries basically because they don't...

Well I don't know much about American politics, however I'm pretty sure that you have to separate your state from your religion. This stinks of religion running the state!

GOD IS DEAD! There is no doubt in my mind that the world is warming up! I have my own first-hand experience of it, experiencing the winter of 1963 (UK), and 1980 and others. Now I also have no doubt that we will again have a severe winter, but the Frequency has much reduced, to my mind anyway...

I thought that this psychological explanation of the Jordan Peterson and Cathy Newman interview was right on point. I also felt that the two of them got on well together. What was very interesting was the observations that the director used a camera in an aggressive manner! Is there nothing...

I would like to propose the notion that there's no such thing as racism, it is in fact a natural Instinct designed to protect us, and what we perceive as racism is in fact bullying. The reason for this post is that was watching the latest episode of Star Trek, and I noticed a strange looking...

I do have "man flu" and I was very amused by a lady lorry drivers comment when I mentioned it. She said stay away from me I don't need a sniff and a sniffle! I think she was from Lancashire... (a brilliant put down).. The speech recognition isn't working very well with my cold infected voice!

Yes they are fine Jon although I did have one scare, it said something like comments are not allowed on private videos or something. So my immediate thought was I had lost all of the comments! But they seem to be intact. I will reinstate them in a day or two!

To be fair, to the person, he wasn't that much out of line. I think I was overly sensitive in taking Umbrage! It was that he was talking about me in the third person that triggered me. I've decided to leave the videos private for a few days to see what effect it has on SEO. Obviously not a very...

I have about 200 YouTube videos demonstrating various problems and solutions in MS Access. Now, I get my fair share of thumbs downs, which I accept because I see other excellent YouTube providers get them on what I consider perfect well presented videos. There's no accounting for some of the...

I always ask why? There must have been some benefit to doing this, now the obvious benefit is it's a way of becoming famous which leads to money, although Fame itself is enough for many. But then, why this? I wondered, if I were black and constantly harassed as I suspect many are, we can suppose...

I've started a reply, but it's S**t* - I'll read some more before my 2nd draft...

I have just started reading Dr Jordan Peterson's book - "Maps of Meaning" I haven't bought it yet, I've got it on Android, Google Play books, Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief You get the first few chapters free to whet your appetites so to speak! - It is fascinating! - However I...

Yes I have been, I've broken my rule about keeping out of the AWF water cooler! I stepped in because I just couldn't understand how people could speak about other people with so much vitriol. I'm currently doing a Blog about it. Well, I'm writing it, whether I publish it or not, well I suppose...

I am convinced that Donald Trump has a side to his character, shall we say is something negative. However I make this general observation, and some of it comes from listening to Dr Jordan B Peterson, but I've always had this notion, it's not as if Jordan is showing me something new, it's that he...

"Every truth claim you make," Jordan Peterson "Carries with it an ethic..." - the Pareto distribution

I have a suggestion for a area on the forum, actually a single thread might do it though. I believe I was listening to Melvin Bragg on Radio 4 and he was talking about printing. In the discussion it came up that the reason that we have "balloon" and other words with double letters in them is...
